Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[_BlackStar]

^  Ten Hag will prolly make Maguire the captain but only during the first couple months of the season before he puts his own trusted lieutenant.  Who will unironically be a Dutch player.  Which Dutch player or players are in Manchester United's sights this summer?  Anybody prolific player from Ajax?  

De Jong is one of his targets, but I don't think the armband will be given to him especially because there are still players who are more senior than him ^{[if he is actually signed].} De Gea is far more worthy in my opinion to be captain, but only if no one else is willing to stay long at Manchester United.

And just wondering what you guys think.  Will Ten Hag be the guy to bring United back to its glory days just as Klopp did at Liverpool?

I'm not sure about him but he has a chance to do well as club officials expect.

[Sterbens]

De Jong is a good player but I think United can find better. From better I mean someone who can turn out strong and even better after gaining experience and  getting good training. Reason I am saying this is because I don't like the price tag for which United is trying to acquire De Jong as we have seen lot of big transfers failing for United recently. United wouldn't want another one.

de Jong is a very talented player. If Manchester United decide to sign De Jong at a higher price, I don't think they will suffer. Manchester United should now look for a player who will be able to coordinate quickly with the United team. There is no shortage of talented players in the United team. But the bond between the players is very weak.

True, at least Manchester United have many opportunities to be able to further improve their performance if there is a De Jong defending United. But rumors of Manchester United still don't want to increase the price, that's the problem that makes De Jong have another club option if Manchester United can't reach a contract agreement.

Currently, many teams have taken steps to relocate, but Manchester does not seem to be working in this situation.However, Lukaku lacks much in the way of his performance.  They need to increase the space of performance.  Because defending champions Liverpool are still the best team.This has tempted Liverpool to sign for a long time.I like Manchester Club, although they are not champions, they like stability. There are many opportunities to improve their performance.But it must be admitted that the best goal scorer of the season was Manchester. But I will continue to support Chelsea.  I never miss an EPL match.

According to report, Mason Greenwood have been granted on bail after he was allegedly accused of rape and bully. United initially suspended his contract with the club when he was arrested. But hopes Manchester United management put his contract into consideration and Greenwood. Although, with the look of things. It seems he might be with United squad next season. That will indeed be a good news for both his fans and himself.

This is good news for fans of Manchester United and Mason Greenwood. Mason Greenwood is a talented enough young player now. He also scored five goals in the Premier League last season and one in the Champions League. Maybe he will be able to play better with Ronaldo in the next season. Not sure if he will be in United's squad, but I would be happy to have him in the squad.

Manchester United fans should be happy with Greenwood's release from a case that went viral a few months ago, especially Manchester United, which is currently being cleaned up, still needs a lot of players after several players left Manchester United, the return of Greenwood will certainly be a good back up for Ronaldo after a few striker they failed to get in the transfer market, I think Greenwood performance so far has been quite good and he has a bright future at manchester united but unfortunately the case that happened to him made his career tarnished, but by being proven innocent of the case, Greenwood now has a great opportunity To prove his capacity as a talented player and Ten Hag, who is famous as a coach who prioritizes young players, it is certainly possible to include Greenwood in the Manchester United squad next season.

Manchester city tried last season ,they were unarguably the best teams in the league.They scored more goals than any other EPL team,but they almost lose their tittle to Liverpool at the dieing minutes,but thank God for their players,someone like Gundogan came on the game and changed everything about the game,he scored the first goal,and revived the teams spirit again,and finally,they won by 3-2. In an attempt to defend their tittle again,they have signed Haaland from Durtmund,a striker in his prime.Next season will be another excellent season for them.

Interesting to know who will be the next captain for Manchester United because lately Ten Hag has been spoke with Maguire that he apparently will not be Manchester United captain for next season and several names appears as candidate for the next captain but some of fans want David De Gea in that position because they says De Gea as part of this team more than 10 years and had stable performance from seasons to seasons even he is very loyal for Man Utd and i think he deserved to get that

Poor performances and frequent scorn from fans this season are said to not only put Maguire at risk of losing the captain's armband, but also his position as a starter.  The most appropriate figure to replace him is Cristiano Ronaldo.  Yes, the Portuguese superstar is ideal to be a leader for his colleagues, the experience, spirit and winning mentality embedded in CR7 is expected to be able to awaken the young red devil squad to become a challenger to the Premier League champion.

Harry Maguire should consider himself lucky for even staying for at least one more year. After his terrible performance in the season we have left behind, I wouldn't keep him in the team if I were in Manchester United's place. He had a very low level of benefit to the team and they conceded many goals especially because of him. We still don't know what Erik ten Hag will do about him though. Maybe he will decide to send him suddenly and it would be a good choice in my opinion. But I think he is likely to stay now.

He could sit on the bench all year, occasionally taking to the field. So, Manchester United will make him leave because it is unlikely that a player would want to sit on the bench instead of getting game practice. His season has indeed been awful, he has often been lost on the pitch, failing to notice the ball flying past him, causing the team to concede many goals.

Chelsea still have many options for midfield and defender positions. In my opinion, Chelsea is not optimal in attacking positions because the arrival of Romelu Lulaku does not play much of a role, so Kai Havertz becomes the focus of Chelsea's attack even though his original position is not a center forward.

Since the problem with the coach because of his statement he has been unable to perform optimally. Maybe the thought of him was out of chelsea, even though it had been happening for a long time. When he was given the opportunity to play in the last few games he looked very bad. It seems that he is so heavy with his body. In fact I see his touch is very bad. His controls don't even deserve to play in the EPL. If he's going to leave, I think Tuchel will easily take it off because he doesn't contribute much to chelsea.

Chelsea did give the green light to let Lukaku go, because as you said, Lukaku is not contributing to Chelsea. Even Kai Havertz's performance is
much better than Lukaku, even though Havertz is not a pure striker. Lukaku should not have returned to the Premier League after his previous failure
with Man United. Even though many people around Lukaku reminded him to stay at Inter, but Lukaku was still determined to move back to Chelsea
and it turned out that Lukaku's performance was very disappointing. Fortunately, currently Inter are still willing to accept Lukaku back, even though
Inter will sign Lukaku on a loan scheme. At least Lukaku's future is getting clearer, because Lukaku will most likely play again next season with Inter.

I honestly feel Lukaku doesn't feel loved at Chelsea. At Inter Milan, he was so important and the team was built around him. He is a good attacker and a brilliant finisher. He is strong in the air and with his feet, he probably needs the backing of the team and love. I feel if he gets to feel at home at Chelsea he will be able to give his best to the club and the fans.

[SatoPrincess]

Lukaku is a prolific striker he is world class and has shown that over the years at Chelsea, Everton, Manchester united and Inter Milan. His current drop in form last season came as a shock because he started well at the beginning of the season and dropped form.  In my opinion he was more valued back in Inter Milan, this had positive effect on his performance and if he decides to go back he will definitely pick up again from where he left off.

The problem is that even if he gets eliminated, Manchester United will not get anything there because seeing his performance like that it is very difficult to find a team that is interested in such a high price with such quality lol.
but I think in this case for next season if indeed he can't show something good then it would be better for him to decorate the bench because even when he plays it's actually the players on his team who have trouble

[LGD2Business]

lol. It seems that everyone is annoyed with what Maguire is doing at Manchester United. Yes, I myself feel the same way when I see him play. How can he still be trusted as Manchester United captain?
I agree with you, if he can't make any significant changes, it would be better if he stays on the bench.

It would be surprising if people thought Maguire game was good. Everyone can see it with their own eyes, but always provides a blunder for his club, is a threat to his own goalkeeper, and a test for the Manchester United squad in general. Next season Erik Ten Hag should rest Maguire more on the bench.

I don't understand why Harry Maguire is being teased so much. Yes he makes some silly mistakes sometimes but if it was that bad they wouldn't have played him. He would be transferred to a lower level team. But they keep him on the team. Can't Manchester United find a better defender? If they find better defender, Harry Maguire's playing time will definitely decrease.

In the situation that he is in right now in Chelsea, I don't think it will be easy for him to get back in form and at the same time, Chelsea also does not want to sell him for a lot less money because they have got the player for 97 million euro if I am correct.

So, I think the player should move but I don't think any team is going to pay the release clause for Lukaku right now because it is really high. I think if he moves to any older club of him that he has already played for he will perform better,

Actually they can find a better defender than Harry Maguire now. But I don't know if Erik ten Hag will make such move in this transfer window. Manchester United are trying to strengthen their midfield after Pogba has decided to leave the team for free. Their main target is Frenkie de Jong now and it seems like he will cost them too much money also. I wonder whether they will go for more transfers after signing him. If they do then I hope they look for a new defender to replace Maguire. Even the fans should be annoyed by his performance last season.

[martyns]

Next season will be highly competitive between Manchester city and Liverpool after both teams have sign their top priority strikers this summer. Haaland to City and Darwin to Liverpool. These top strikers will definitely fitin in their various teams and I believe they would cooperate with their teammates inother to achieve their aim. I can't just wait for next season to start so I can see their pattern of game style.

[Vinaa77]

Chelsea losing Rudiger and Christensen is a big void that needs to be filled immediately with just Saar and Thiago Silva as options in central bank and Barcelona acquiring the services of Alonso they need more options defensively. That should be focused on regrouping their backline for the next campaign.

Yes, Chelsea actually have to sign a new center backs for next season, they seem short already in that position with the departure of Rudiger and Christensen, i am yet to see any rumors of any central defender being targeted by Chelsea or linked to the club, maybe Tuchel and his scouting partners are yet to identify a defender of their choice, but it is much better they get on with their summer business early, other title contenders are already stepping things up, and acquiring the players they need in the positions they feel they are lacking. If Chelsea must compete with City and Liverpool next season, then they must make good signings this summer, or else it is going to be a two horse race again.

Kalidou Koulibaly, could be Chelsea's option to improve the back line in the transfer market next summer. Currently, Chelsea only leaves three central defenders, Thiago Silva, Trevoh Chalobah, and Malang Sarr. In addition, the Blues are also in danger of losing Marcos Alonso.

Then there is the potential for Chelsea to bring back some defenders from loan spells. But to navigate the rigors of the Premier League, Chelsea must seriously hunt for players in the summer transfer window. Koulibaly is a commensurate replacement for Rudiger.

Right. Lukaku really did not perform optimally last season, his performance dropped significantly compared to when he was at Inter. One thing maybe because Serie A is not as tight as the Premier League so it becomes a difficult step for Lukaku to play in the Premier League. Inter Milan and Barcelona are very interested in bringing Lukaku in this season transfer market on loan. with a relatively high value when chelsea brought in Romelu Lukaku from Inter, of course it did not match the performance he gave this season, so Chelsea management took the option of looking for other stickers.

+1
Harry Maguire's silly mistake that brought Man United into the worst zone of all time. I also wondered why it was like that to keep a defender who clearly gave a lot of mess. Surprisingly, he is a player who is valued quite expensively. Did none of the Man United fans voice that voice at the press conference?

[alpamar99]

For the midfield, it seems that there are two players who are now close, namely De Jong and Van De Beek. It looks like Ten Hag really wants to reunite with some of their players who played at Ajax at that time and I think both are still pretty good and I'm actually happy that Van De Beek is back to being one of the players Ten Hag wants.
As for the defender position there are indeed many defenders who are better than Maguire but the problem is that if they dump Maguire now it's clear they waste a lot of money and this is a clear loss

[barbara44]

De Jong is one of his targets, but I don't think the armband will be given to him especially because there are still players who are more senior than him ^{[if he is actually signed].} De Gea is far more worthy in my opinion to be captain, but only if no one else is willing to stay long at Manchester United.

I believe that it is not going to be that simple. I mean De Jong is an obvious target, and he dropped in value as well because ever since he came from Ajax, he didn't provide what was required from him. Don't get me wrong, he is still a player that gets time in a Barcelona team, even if a bad one, that is still Barcelona.

So, I am guessing that it is not going to be like 10 million euro type of dela, of course it is going to take a lot of money, but will United be able to afford it? They need to get players to replace their defensive line as well, if they start the season with Maguire on defense, I am sorry but that alone would be a good enough reason to give up hope from them.
